Sep 14, 2021 Full Review Jonathan Romney Screen International It's all too calculated to really breathe as drama, though it's undeniably intelligent, classily mounted and well acted all round. Sep 14, 2021 Full Review Monica Reid Far Out Magazine Yvan Attal’s The Accusation is a tense, complex personal and legal drama dealing in an unusual, purposely ambiguous way with a sexual assault case.

Moreau D LES RELATIONS Combien de verité quand l'esprit l'interprete à sa manière? Tout est vrai et tout est faux. Un malaise qui glace la raison. Ce soir, c'est procès et je suis juré. DSK a aimé. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 03/18/25 Full Review Flixster F I've mixed feelings about it. While it feels like yet another flick on this topic, the performances and the dialogues are quite impressive to dismiss it. 6.5/10 Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 07/26/23 Full Review Read all reviews
